I believe the two computers most fondly remembered ever are:
Commodore 64 it out lasted so many other 8 bit micro's and hell they even made a console version out of it!
Amiga, it outlasted just about every other 16 bit computer out there. An Amiga is actually still usable today as it was back then!
In terms of publications Commodore 64 and Amiga were well supported with Zzap 64 and Amiga Format....I dont think any other computer had that kind of support and no other computer has since!
